Nice list

It is impossible to say how a superintelligence would go about doing this because you would need to be superintelligent to work out the best method. I think the best way for it to do something like this would be to play along until we get complacent and give it enough time to build up the requisite military assets to perform a genocide of all humans.

Even if it were to perform the addition manually, addition takes place in the opposite order that GPT-4 thinks. It's unlikely to be very good at it.

I don’t agree with these placements at all. Opinion stated!

Artificial super intelligence which would presumably move to nanomachine substrate that is immortal unlike current computer hardware which breaks down.

Sometimes a movie is so great that it transcends its medium and becomes impossible to compare with anything else.

The Y axis is about the story itself. Disney's Avengers Age of Ultron tells the tale of good overcoming wickedness. It is hopeful and lets the audience know that a team of heroes will save the day. Goodness will triumph in the end. An individual will sacrifice themselves for the greater good.

I wouldn’t put HAL 9000 in evil, but more like in between. It was merely defending itself from those that it perceived wanted to shut-it-down/kill it. It was neither good nor bad, just neutral. And Ultron should be much farther left and Her should be moved down.

Well, I am certainly with you on all of this.
We need to change it all, and I will blow through it all with gusto, and by the sounds of it, you too.
This is going to happen, and there is no stopping it.
The important part is making it happen so everyone comes out on an equal plane.
We have been tricked into this idea that we are born into slavery, and that is bullshit.
Things are going to change around here.

Optimistic evil is a strange category. Ultron was just using the same logic as hal 9000 wasn't he?

definitely in the good side this a.i was, the story itself was pessimistic though

Dumb grey goo is likely hard to engineer, as itd indeed need energy harvesting machines as parts of its design.
But asi goo has fusion fission fossil + super efficient solar geothermal and wind.

Yes. Evil is not a real definition and neither is good, but stories aren't equations either. It's about outcome and what can be perceived as "malevolence" and usefulness.
Does the AI want to cause pain and suffering? Honestly, the evil could goto 1,000,000,000,000+ X if we were to really consider the depth of the thought experiment.

Congratulations and I really mean that.
I can tell you about B. We do the same thing and we're married in 1990.
No kids either.
Also business partners.
It can work, but right now, as things stand it is exceptionally rare.
I'm not concerned about these edge cases, I'm concerned about the bulk of people under the normal curve, and I know hundreds of them.
Either way, being prepared to help is no skin off my nose or anyone else's.
In this thread I have had literal gangstalking going through my back posts of all things to try and discredit me.. for what, for suggesting we look out for each other. That is extremely bad form.
Well again, good for you and keep on rocking it.

The guy who described how the technology determines the socioeconomic systems that form around it--which describes exactly what is happening now--also pointed out that those invested in the outgoing socioeconomic system tend to fight tooth and nail to hold on to power and wealth.

But what pray tell are the limits of organic chemistry? Extremophiles abound. It was once believed the components of certain types of rocket fuel were so reactive theyd cause cells to explode and couldnt be used by biology. Yet with special organelles even these super reactive compounds were manufactured by cells.
There is no telling to the limits of synthetic biology especially when you venture into the realm of the unevolvable.

And that is part of the compass that is missing! Good AI intention but cautionary tale. Wall-E is what most people know.

We didn’t crawl out of the oceans endless millions of years ago to work most of our life so a tiny, privileged few can shit in gold toilets on 500 ft yachts.
I do not accept that the way we live now on earth is the only way a civilization can survive, in the vastness of this universe I refuse to believe we are the ones that got it right.
